Photo-Fenton inactivation of MS2 bacteriophage at alkaline pH by Fe salts or nm to μm-sized oxides, and the Janus-faced effects of natural organic matter in surface waters

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Giulio Farinelli, Ogadimma Cassandra Oji-Okoro

In this study, MS2 bacteriophage was inactivated by homogeneous and heterogeneous photo-Fenton processes in an alkaline matrix (pH 8) using low concentrations of H2O2 and iron forms (1 mg/L), including Fe(II), Fe(III), and Fe (hydr)oxides. As a reference, ...

Blue ice in Antarctica: The gateway to travel in time and space

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Veronica Tollenaar

Antarctica has unique areas that expose blue ice, which contrast to most of the continent (~98%) that is covered by snow. Some of these blue ice areas (BIAs) contain meteorite concentrations and (very) old ice, making them very valuable for understanding o ...

Bacterial inactivation in sunlit surface waters is dominated by reactive species that emanate from the synergy between light, iron, and natural organic matter

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Jun Ma, Da Wang, Shuang Song

In this study, the synergistic and antagonistic effects of Fe species and coexisting natural organic matter (NOM) on the efficacy of solar light disinfection of water are investigated. Different initial iron species (Fe2+/Fe3+) and naturalorganic matter ty ...

Composition and Pressure Effects on Partitioning of Ferrous Iron in Iron-Rich Lower Mantle Heterogeneities

Philippe Gillet, Marco Cantoni, James Badro, Susannah McGregor Dorfman, Farhang Nabiei, Charles-Edouard Boukaré

Both seismic observations of dense low shear velocity regions and models of magma ocean crystallization and mantle dynamics support enrichment of iron in Earth’s lowermost mantle. Physical properties of iron-rich lower mantle heterogeneities in the modern ...

Porous networks based on iron(ii) clathrochelate complexes

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, José Luis Bila, Emilie Baudat, Andrea Luca Ramorini, Joffrey Vincent Michel Pijeat

Microporous networks based on boronate ester-capped iron(II) clathrochelate complexes are described. The networks were obtained by covalent cross-linking of tetrabrominated clathrochelate complexes via Suzuki–Miyaura polycross-coupling reactions with dibor ...

Factors influencing the hydration kinetics of ye'elimite; effect of mayenite

Karen Scrivener, Mohsen Ben Haha, Frank Bullerjahn

The aim of this study was to understand the origin of the variation in the hydraulic reactivity of ye'elimite systems. To this end, the hydration of two clinkers, one composed mainly of synthetic stoichiometric (C(4)A(3)(S) over bar) "Y" and the other of a ...

Tailoring thermal properties of functional materials

Xavier François Mettan

Thermal conductivity (k) plays an essential role in functional devices. In some cases, high value is required to transfer heat efficiently. In others, low k assists in maintaining a temperature gradient necessary for device operation. It is profitable to d ...

Investigating Earth's Formation History Through Copper and Sulfur Metal-Silicate Partitioning During Core-Mantle Differentiation

James Badro

Identifying extant materials that act as compositional proxies for Earth is key to understanding its accretion. Copper and sulfur are both moderately volatile elements; however, they display different geochemical behavior (e.g., phase affinities). Thus, in ...

Equilibrium reconstruction in an iron core tokamak using a deterministic magnetisation model

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Martinus Gijs, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

In many tokamaks ferromagnetic material, usually referred to as an iron-core, is present in order to improve the magnetic coupling between the solenoid and the plasma. The presence of the iron core in proximity to the plasma changes the magnetic topology w ...

Development of heterogeneous catalytic systems for the transformation of carbon dioxide to methanol under mild conditions

Aswin Gopakumar

Rising level of carbon dioxide (CO2) is a significant contributor to global warming and poses a major concern in modern society and environment. Anthropogenic activities such as fossil fuel combustion, cement production and deforestation are the primary ca ...
